ATHENS, Greece -- Foreign Minister Dora Bakoyannis reiterated in an interview Sunday (October 14th) that Greece may block Macedonia's NATO accession unless an acceptable solution to the longstanding name dispute with Macedonia is found.
Asked about it by the Athens-based Kathimerini daily, Bakoyannis said Greece "thinks that good neighbourly relations and the solving of this problem is a prerequisite for Macedonia's NATO accession".
As for Greece's disputes with Turkey, Bakoyannis said she hoped dialogue between the two countries would deepen. She also said 2008 will new bring opportunities for both sides to settle disputes. (Kathimerini, setimes, RIA Novosti, Focus, Makfax, MIA, AFP - 14/10/07)
